Pharmacists can give more prescribed drugs
Beginning 60 days after passage, New Hampshire pharmacists can administer prescribed controlled drugs in good faith within professional practice. Prescriptions must be properly dated, signed when required, and include the patient's full name and address. Written and electronic prescriptions are allowed; oral prescriptions must follow federal rules and be promptly written down. Hospital pharmacists can also dispense prescribed cannabis-type drugs upon a properly completed prescription. Payments for pharmacist administration follow rates set by the state department, but the law sets no specific payment or patient charge.
